Flow - Nat Turner Was Right

I had a dream late last night
A foot was all on my windpipe
Just before i could blink blink twice
I woke up and it was real life
Another mother loses her son
Another case goes unsolved
Another cop goes uncharged
Nat Turner wasn't wrong at all
And you won't ever get justice
That's just something to adjust with
Maybe if i start bucking then things would change and we'd all shift Another protest we all sit
But all we do is all sit
And we all sick
So I'm off this
But what if i was killing yall kids
Would i be seen on the right side
If i was killing off the white side
Would you call that black pride
Would i get love from the blue lives
I'm going off y'all system I'm basing off y'all metrics
I'm going off y'all history
I'm going off y'all lessons

Another mother loses her son
Another case goes unsolved
Another cop goes uncharged
Nat Turner wasn't wrong at all

Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong

Another mother loses her son
Another case goes unsolved
Another cop goes uncharged
Nat Turner wasn't wrong at all

Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong

I bet y'all think I'm tripping now
What is coming out his mouth
I'm tryna find some common grounds
Searching for the meaning now
I thought you was the conscience cat But where the hell your conscience at
See y'all can accept death but it's weird when we clapping back?
I can't really clap for that
It all sounds performative
New world orderish
I'm on my 4 quarter Jordan ish
Snap the wrist
Now the cops wanna kaepernick
I'd rather take em captive decapitate all the captains quick
I'm not rapper or an activist
I'm just active against anyone who go against this pro blackness proactive pro-magic toe tagging
Slave ship crashing
Masses over masters
Turn they asses into ashes

Another mother loses her son
Another case goes unsolved
Another cop goes uncharged
Nat Turner wasn't wrong at all

Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong

Another mother loses her son
Another case goes unsolved
Another cop goes uncharged
Nat Turner wasn't wrong at all

Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong
Nat turner wasn't wrong

Too many times we got caught with our hands up
Too many times we got caught taking a knee
At the end of the day
I got you
You got me
That's all the policing we'll ever need This right here is for the kings

Let's get it
